Shower tray repair at your home in Ravensden
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ravensden and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Places near Ravensden
What else we do in Ravensden
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ravensden
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

Ravensden questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
